No need to go overseas, almost all countries with birthright citizenship are in the Americas.

The better term might be "abroad", rather than "overseas". Because Jus Soli is a concept that exists mostly in the Americas. So you'd better not cross over the Atlantic or Pacific sea for this plan.
That isn’t the plan you think it is. The US is an outlier in terms of granting birthright citizenship. Most countries - and particularly, most developed countries - do not do this.
Canada, Mexico and a lot of South America countries do this.
And if you believe any of them are safe territory when it comes to what our batshit government might do, I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn looking for a buyer.
I hope Canada is safe, becauseI live there.
Don’t look too closely at your southern neighbor, it might be alarming.
Buddy, trust me you really shouldn't want Americans to become citizens in your country.
They would have to have birth right citizenship for that to work.
We don't recognize birthright citizenship. You'll have to fill in the paperwork like everyone else.
Americans posting memes against American Imperialism, while simultaneously having an American-Centric worldview about the world in regards to citizenship.
Ironic.
(No offense to OP 😉)

nobody likes immigrants, and that includes other countries
I like immigrants. They're so much more interesting than most people.
It's a good era in which to not have children. Expect a lot of forsaken children.
Also expect some coerced birthing programs such as the Leibensborn program (which was also an excuse to recruit young women as sex slaves for the Schutzstaffel ) and the offspring were supported by the state and raised by the single mothers.
This is the program that inspired the Handmaid program in Margaret Atwood's Gilead, in A Handmaid's Tale
And J. D. Vance is super thirsty for it, as is countless other Freedom caucus and MAGA Republican officials.
ETA That said, it might be a good time to get sterilized and commit to not having kids. (That doesn't mean you won't have chances to parent)
Counterpoint:if all leftists don't have kids, then conservatives will end up as the entire next generation. Not to like say, definitely have kids, but anti kid propaganda only hurts us
Uh, very few countries have birthright only citizenship.
Here's the list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jus_soli#Unrestricted_jus_soli
If I'm counting correctly, 34 countries with unrestricted birthright citizenship, and 40 with restricted.
Well your kid won't get citizenship, but you'll be able to afford to birth them.
Is birth citizenship that common? Won't work here in Germany for example...
Literally zero European countries do it. It seems to be in the Americas only, and Chad and Tanzania. The concept that this is some human right apparently only applies to he US.
Yeah that's because we had a whole thing of people claiming that people born enslaved weren't citizens or eligible to vote

This only works if you go to the green countries:
Edit: Source
It's pretty telling about how much Americans know about other countries that the assumption is that Jus Soli is the norm.
What if I go to the gray countries? Do I despawn?
You can't go there until the next expansion.
